MAXIMUM OVERCURRENT PROTECTION AMPACITY
This rating speci es the proper overcurrent protection ampacity.
• OBDC breakers are panel-mount circuit breakers.
• Class T DC fuses are terminal-mounted and should always be used in conjuncture with a disconnect mechanism.
• FXs used in home installations should use properly sized DC circuit breakers.
• A DC breaker includes both overcurrent protection and disconnect capability.
• OutBack Power Systems recommends Class T fuses for marine installations where a DC disconnect is not required.
